AIRismAn added layer of clothing that keeps skin comfortable

Cooling innerwear
AIRism epitomizes the LifeWear commitment to creating comfortable clothes that make life better, wicking away moisture, keeping the skin cool and smooth. It eliminates the discomfort that stems from temperature differences and outerwear to ensure year-round comfort.

Matching skin properties
Men’s AIRism incorporates a micro-polyester fiber that quickly dries men’s skin, which tends to perspire easily. Women’s skin can easily get sticky and chill easily, so AIRism for them employs Cupra, which rapidly absorbs and releases moisture. We developed the ultra-fine fibers of AIRism fabrics to match the properties of both genders and feel light and smooth to the touch. Advanced AIRism technology uniquely delivers the ultimate in comfort.

Broadening the lineup and choices
We have expanded the lineup this season to match the functional requirements of wearers. We have increased color variations for men’s mesh boxer briefs. For women, we have rolled out items with 8/10 length sleeves and long-awaited long-sleeve tops with UV protection, an outstanding choice of innerwear for sports in the sun.

WIRELESS BRAInnovative stretch cups ensure a perfect fit

Innovative stretch cups fit busts perfectly
Women’s bodies change from day to day according to their physical condition, and regular bras may not always provide the perfect fit. To address this concern, UNIQLO began their extensive research into creating the perfect bra structure.

The result is a cup that expands and contracts with the bust by incorporating a special form with radial cuts, for a perfect fit. UNIQLO also redesigned the lower parts of the cups to stabilize underbust support and enhance hold.

Proprietary cup structure
Radial cuts in the special form enable the cup volume to change according to bust size. A wave design on the upper side of cups prevents them from digging into the bust while providing lift and maintaining a natural fit.

The cups incorporate resin parts that are thin, light, and elastic to optimize comfort while enhancing the bustline.

JEANSStylish and Comfortable

Evolving with the times
UNIQLO is committed to perfecting jeans as daily essentials that are as stylish and comfortable as can be. Every season, we diligently update the fabric, design, fit, and finishing techniques to keep pace with the times and ensure that the jeans are easy to coordinate.

From the world’s denim capital
UNIQLO established its Jeans Innovation Center in Los Angeles in 2016. It is here in this global hub for information on jeans that we work with such internationally renowned denim mills as Japan’s Kaihara and Turkey’s ISKO, fashioning fabric that delivers authentic textures, outstanding quality, and unparalleled comfort. We also draw on the expertise of craftspeople and special machinery incorporating state-of-the-art technology to ensure that the resulting jeans are true to the creativity and passion of our designers.

Men’s EZY Jeans
Style and comfort go hand in hand with these EZY jeans. They have an elastic waistband and fit perfectly without the need for a belt–a design you’ll find yourself reaching for time and time again.
